What model of Hella horn are these? Original to your car?
I would suspect Julian Hardy would be able to get them working for you. He does very well with Bosch horns.

Re: Reference needed for Hella horns rebuild
Thanks James! Not sure what model, they are often referred to as "fan fare" horns, they have been with the car for over 25 years. They mount the same as a factory horn and the chrome tops face the grills, the horn part faces to the outside of the wheel well.
I will contact Julian

Re: Reference needed for Hella horns rebuild
Those are really nice horns Victor! Maybe they don't need restoration!
I've definitely seen Hella horns listed on pre-A Kardex as an option, so I was just wondering if there's a model number on them somewhere. Would be nice to write that down for the records. Bosch also made a fanfare horn which was common on 1954 and 1955 cars too. Those were Bosch HO/ESA 6 horns. Nice photos here. There were black ones and chrome/silver ones.

Julian took great care of the horns, he was quick to respond and a real gentleman. He is the guy if you need your horns restored.
